I don't know about the general consensus of the people that are on r/bigbrother, but on twitter, facebook, (etc.) My thing is I always want to play as hard as I can.

Danielle then also won the Power of Veto and agreed to Dan's request to use the Veto on him, as long as he promised to evict Ian instead of Shane. I just wish I had that same perspective. RICH MEEHAN (Executive Producer): I was watching the game go down from our office. He's just doing this because this is his way of trying to stay in the house. IAN TERRY: I went from feeling bad to feeling disgust. Frank then nominated his biggest adversary, Dan, for eviction along with Dan's biggest ally, Danielle, setting the stage for the remarkable chain of events to come. He was known for making one of the best strategic moves in Big Brother history by hosting his own funeral which resulted in him getting vetoed off the block when he was the target. I know moving forward with the Quack Pack we're good. Britney gave me a clue that she wasn't happy and this wasn't the plan. And I was thinking, "How could I cook slop?". I let you guys down, the producers. If there's gonna be some really important and tough fairness calls to make here, we do make sure that everyone that needs to be consulted is consulted, and that we ultimately agree that we're making the right decision.

And then I started questioning everything: "Okay, that doesn't make sense. BRITNEY HAYNES: I knew that she knew about it, 100 percent. BRITNEY HAYNES: I thought Frank was then going to put Shane up because I had seen him talking to Shane in the backyard, so I thought that he probably was just giving him some warning. 1st They were just hell bent on him not getting it twice. I thought people would maybe be able to take a step back and say, "Hey, look you played really hard," but at the same time I sent people out in a brutal fashion and I definitely didn't realize how mad they would be. Honestly, one of the things that makes my game in that season weaker is the starstruckedness with the returning players. I was trying to send a message. Why did you guess Spots?" They were already thinking about next week and just going through the motions thinking, "Dan's going home, he's finally leaving the house." S, Shane's crying! We would have understood if he could have just told us that he wasn't going to do it. They also believed it was as he told Danielle meant to gain her sympathy with the jury. Dan and his wife, Chelsea, currently share two kids together, 5-year-old Desmond and 3-year-old Miles, who have all made appearances on Gheesling's social media. I mean, obviously it wasn't what we wanted. The main question I get asked still today is, "What do you think of his funeral?" When his close ally Brian Hart became evicted in Week 1, Dan appeared to be on the outs, but he managed to get off the others' radar by giving them the perception that he was not a threat by throwing early competitions. I'll see someone in a grocery store, "How about Dan's funeral? "Here's my funeral. IAN TERRY: I'm thinking that here's some sort of last-ditch attempt to get something going. SHANE MEANEY: I don't think Ian saw it. I knew the most important thing in there was to cause confusion and chaos so people are focused on that instead of what I may be saying to Frank upstairs, because that's the whole thing. To really answer that, I'd have to lock myself in the Big Brother house for a year, and then re-watch every season. DAN GHEESLING: I knew the number one thing I had to do was let her know that I was still looking out for her. DAN GHEESLING: I've been a huge fan of Big Brother.

My dad respected Dan and thought Dan was going to protect me, and my dad's name is also Dan. SHANE MEANEY: I started to tear up. I see Britney's mouth drop and Ian's like "No! But I have to say, Ian really had an amazing final speech. We were friends and we talked a lot in the house. IAN TERRY: Yeah, I noticed that. This guy's up to something." So that's why there's a bit of a stop down because we want to make sure everything is 100 percent correct. Occupation In hindsight, I don't know if it worked. That's where they put him in. DANIELLE MURPHREE: Dan and I have still not seen each other since we were on the CBS lot at finale night seven years ago. I only need one more, with Frank and Ashley being the swing, I figured they'd vote together, and that Frank was going to be more pissed at Dan because Dan and Danielle did not give him that vote in the round where he went out. Other Prizes It looks like she's crying and misses her husband and we connected on this, so I'm really just trying to push emotional buttons at this point. We're going to be safe for sure all of us. She understood relationships in the house logically and strategically. Danielle was a very smart player. I also wanted to hit her emotional button to maybe make her cry more. ", With an upset Frank now telling Dan he wanted the duplicitous Ian out but Ian being safe because of the Pandora's Box Veto Dan swooped in with an alternative: "This is my pitch to you. In "Big Brother 14," he orchestrated one of the most famous game moves in history. Lucky for me it worked out for Season 10 because Season 9 is considered maybe one of the less exciting seasons to watch. To be honest, I don't know for sure that he was trying to cheat. He complained, but nothing happened with that. I will never vote against Dan. Dan's frustration spilled over in another scene that did not make it to air and again changes the context of what would follow at the funeral as he lit into Danielle as the players waited to enter the house at the conclusion of the veto competition. I'm angry at Britney because I'm questioning her because why is she getting answers from Frank. BRITNEY HAYNES: I was frustrated by it, because we had organized this plan. JENN ARROYO: Seven years later, I sometimes think I should have thrown in my vote to Dan. But for him, the silliness and the spectacle sort of adds to that. Other highlights of his game include controlling the second half of the game, outlasting the other coaches, not having any eviction votes against him, and reaching the final 2 a second time. Not, "Dan, what were you doing up there with Frank?" But to be honest, I did not want the Veto, because me sitting on the block means that I don't have to cast a vote which means I have more friends in jury. He's not okay, and I'm very worried about him." DAN GHEESLING: Yeah, I remember that. Times Nominated Would it have mattered? But then I was also kind of scared. And I will say this. I feel like everyone would have understood because that is just putting a ton of faith in people that you didn't even know what they're going to do. I like to hear something good about myself too, but I thought that would disarm people, and it gives people the illusion that this is it for me and I want to enjoy these last couple of days because I know they're my last couple of days. And I'm just looking at everybody, like, "You can't be serious. JENN ARROYO: When it came to the religious stuff, I didn't really care. A look back at the crazy true story of Chippendales founder Somen "Steve" Banerjee and the murder and murder-for-hire plots at the center of the Hulu series. Because I knew people had underestimated me. And Frank's just jabbing him and basically saying, "Hey, it's payback time. This is how I go out." But I was also like, "Well, it doesn't matter, it's not going to work.". They both won Parts 1 and 3 respectively. When she hits me with a pillow, I'm like, "Okay I've got her. The final question was worth 11 points, so if Dan answered it correctly, he would win the Power of Veto. I'm not going to have time to tell him. I'm pissed, I'm sad, and I tell the producer, "Hey, look, no offense, but get Chris Roach in here because I'm not talking to anyone else." I'm by myself now, too. I was close to being on Season 9. Nobody really wanted to send her home except for Dan.
